Captin Worpex please don't double post. You can always post all the heroes on the Hive without taking up a lot of space with the clever use of hidden tags.
ZzzZzzz Should we really care ?

Yes stop posting useless stuff.
Gonna test it and tell what i think later.
For me the useless post is below sorry.
How old are you, 10? -_-
Get back on topic, useless posts will be deleted by a moderator anyways.
OK, i tested it. *sigh* There's a lot to tell. And you ain't gonna be pleased.
Terrain: I didn't play the original dating way back from 2006, but I don't think that the terrain differs in this one too much from it. Blizzard cliffs, randomly placed NPC's, cheap tilework, e.t.c. I know it's supposed to have a gladiator-style feeling, but without a single custom doodad, it just can't. Dated and unoriginal, terrain gets 1/5.
Gameplay: As I said, I haven't played the first one. And as I also said, I don't think this one differs much from it. The hero selection is nice - except that they (almost) all use default Warcraft 3 models. Then, the spell selection - this is where the map stopped in place. All spells, and I mean every single one of them, is also a preset WC3 spell, just enabled to be bought. Also, the fact that you can buy a little puny mage spells such as War Stomp and Thunder Clap is just... silly. There should be separate sections for STR, AGI, and INT heroes. OK, then goes the betting. This is a nice aspect - it's like a competition within a competition; while gladiators fight, humans race to who will be the gambler that gambled the most money. While not very varied, this is a nice addition to the map. And then... the fights. The dull, uninspired, 30-second fights.
1. Heroes have insanely low, or insanely high HP. Tome buying should be removed and heroes should all start with much more health and mana.
2. The option that you can buy only 2 spells, and if you didn't buy INT tomes, use only one in the battle, is absurd. As I said, add more HP and MP to the heroes and enable buying more spells.
3. I killed Jeff the janitor.
With gambling and the slight "hero creation", gameplay gets a pitiful 2/5.
Packaging: Ermm... OK, you added screens, good. But the description could have more content on gameplay and hero information. The loading screen from WC3? Derp derp. Packaging gets 2.5/5.
Overall rating: 2/5, no +rep. I am really, REALLY dissapionted. This could've been soooo much better, if it wasn't an equivalent of a 2006 map. As a sequel, you shoul've tried waaaay harder to improve it.
